This interdisciplinary symposium will convene leading experts in adult stem cell research, tissue regeneration and bioengineering to discuss cutting edge research at the intersection of these disciplines, with the overall aim of translating current stem cell knowledge into clinical applications.

Grantsmanship for Students and Postdocs: Pathways to Individual Fellowship

March 20, 2019

Join Science Alliance for “Grantsmanship for Graduate Students and Postdocs” to learn the skills for concise and persuasive writing that is not only vital in academia, but essential for any career path.

This two-day symposium will convene leading experts in cancer immunotherapy to discuss cutting-edge findings in the broad area of combination therapies, including checkpoint inhibitors and cellular therapies. Particular emphasis will be given to the biological mechanisms underlying combination hypotheses, bispecific antibodies and other emerging modalities for delivery of combination therapies, as well as a discussion of the importance of effective clinical trial design.

Get Involved

Join Dr. Rebecca Nebel from the Society for Women’s Health Research and the Science Alliance to learn more about how to utilize informational interviews for career exploration, networking, and finding the job of your dreams.

Join us at the Academy to learn directly from a PhD hiring manager what they look for in a resume, the best way to communicate technical and transferable skills to a mixed audience, and how to showcase not just what you do but who you are and why an employer should want to hire you.

This panel will highlight the realities of a career change and the opportunities available to scientists who are thinking about a career in teaching. Our guests will discuss what it’s really like to teach in public schools, the shift in culture from a lab to a classroom, and the programs that will help prepare you to get there.

The Junior Academy recruits STEM experts to coach teams of talented, highly motivated students as they compete in science & technology challenges sponsored by industry-leading companies. Students and mentors can participate from anywhere in the world, connecting with one another via Launchpad, our interactive challenge platform.

Available exclusively to our Member community, Member-to-Member Mentoring is a self-directed mentoring program that matches early career scientists and engineers with experienced STEM professionals for advice and coaching.

In this Annals issue, leading scientists and scholars explore the question of meaning through the lens of scientific inquiry, using interdisciplinary approaches to examine the various sources from which we might derive greater insight into the meaning and purpose of human existence.

For 200 years—since 1817—the Academy has brought together extraordinary people working at the frontiers of discovery. Among the oldest scientific organizations in the United States, it has become not only an enduring cultural institution in New York, but also one of the most significant organizations in the global scientific community.

The biotechnological advances of the last decade have confronted us with an explosion of data. The task of organizing and structuring this information is truly daunting. Because no single research laboratory can handle the problems on its own, a number of community efforts have emerged to address the increasing complexities in data analyses, modeling, experimental design, and wet lab experimentation. The volume presents some of the work developed under the umbrella of two such community efforts: the European Network of Excellence (ENFIN) and the Dialogue on Reverse Engineering Assessment and Methods (DREAM) project. The ENFIN addresses discrete function prediction, network reconstruction, and systems-level modeling, emphasizing the importance of strong collaboration between “dry” and “wet” laboratories. The DREAM project aims to foster collaboration between computational and experimental biologists to understand the limitations, and to enhance the strengths, of the efforts to model and reverse engineer cellular networks from high-throughput data.
